At the last round of government dining and entertainment subsidy program, we took the opportunity to splurge on a sushi platter from Wa Sushi. We ordered a Salmonholic medium platter ($59) that had salmon nigiri and salmon roll both fresh and seared salmon and salmon sashimi. We love salmon more than other fish so it was an easy choice to choose this platter over the vegie platter and assorted fish nigiri platter.
The platter was a feast to the eyes! The rice is less sweet compared to the chain restaurants but as it was prepared earlier, I think it would be much tastier to dine in.
The fish was fresh and tasty, and I was amazed at the knife skills of the chef. To be able to cut paper thin slices of fish without breaking any part of the fish is no mean feat. Look at how thin the slice of fish that adorns the top of the salmon roll! There is a thicker slice of fish within the roll, along with some avocado and cucumber. The sashimi was also beautifully cut, there was no leftover skin or sinew on the fish.
There was about 30 pieces altogether, 6 different styles of presenting salmon. So each piece was about $2 which is a little more expensive than the platters from Sushi Hub. Unfortunately there was a public holiday surcharge 15% which meant we only saved 14% instead of 25%. Overall I think the quality is more bespoke and I feel it tastes a little fresher. It also offers other more deluxe platter choices with crab and sea urchin so they would provide an easy catering option for dinner parties.
